"The construction of these craft and

precautions taken that until now not
a person outside of those intended to
know had an inkling of what had been
done.
"From every standpoint the achieve

chief value to Amerloans is its dem

upon."
An as-renment was made btMn
former secretary of State Bryan an 1
Charles M. Schwab that the Bethle

no submarines nor parts of subma

Schwab, Washington officials alleged,

said he called President Powell's at

Southern Pacific officials are sub
mitting the executive heads of the
system the recommendation of the pub
lic service commission of Oregon that
tiie Oswego Une.be equipped with block
signals from the Jefferson street sta
tion to Oswego.
The commission issued its recom
mendation yesterday as a result of its
investigations into the wreck of two
freight trains two weeks ago in the
cut near Riverdale. The wreck cauaed
the death of one trainman and the
serious injury of another.
The commission considered the ad
visability of making the recommenda
tion an order, but because of the cost
of the improvement and the willing
ness of the company to act on recom
mendations in previous cases, it was
decided to leave the matter to the
discretion of the company. As a mat
ter of fact the officials have been con
sidering the advisability of the block
system on this line ever since the ac
cident. The track goes through the
cut near Riverdale on a double reverse
curve. The entire trackage follows the
river bank to Oawego and goes through
many cuts and wooden sections where
a run view is shut on.
